Guess Who We Have???
August 3rd, 2008
Long story short, no post last night due to utter exhaustion on
all of our parts (falling asleep at around 6 p.m.). So I guess our
visit to Xi’an, the Terra-Cotta Warriors, and the massive city parks
will have to wait until our next post because the pressing news is
this……WE HAVE HER!!! That’s right, after arriving in Guiyang this
afternoon we barely had time to unpack our bags before “our china doll”
arrived.
So there she is folks. We were all waiting down in the hotel lobby when her foster parents brought her in. We all sat down to talk along with our guide/translator and the orphanage director. Many signitures and photos later we said goodbye to the director and foster family and were left with the little girl. Needless to say the separation was tough ( and will be for a while). There was lots of crying on her part but mom finally managed to get her down for a nap. She just woke up a few minutes ago and is actually smiling and laughing at Nathan and Micah’s antics (go figure…). I’ll put another photo below, this one of all of us along side of her foster family. I’m forced to cut this post short due to little internet availability so until next time, God bless and we thank you for your prayers.
Love,
Kim, Daniel, Nathan, Micah, and now, Sassy (soon to be named something else!)
